I'm knitting up a garter yoke baby cardi (pattern by Jennifer Hoel available for free on ravelry.com). It's coming together very quickly and uses dpns and circular needles. I'm using one of my favourite yarns for this project - cleckheaton country 8 ply in a great indigo blue shade that has flecks of brown. I'm thinking of adding some vintage brown leather buttons but will wait to see how they look before making my final decision.

I have so many projects I want to get done this year and thought I would make a list to help me get through them.

I have already started some knitting projects. I find these are easy to carry around with me, to the park, to the play room, in the garden. I can even work on them with small child climbing in my lap trying to get a better view of the television - although there have been a few dropped stitches that need to be picked up again.
